Importance of Fire Alarm Installations:

The primary function of fire alarms is to alert occupants in the event of a fire. The significance of having a high-quality fire alarm installation cannot be understated for the following reasons:

Early Detection: A robust fire alarm system can detect smoke and potential fire threats at the earliest stages, providing occupants enough time to evacuate.
Minimising Property Damage: Early detection means faster response times, which can lead to less property damage and potentially save lives.
Legal and Insurance Implications: Ensuring proper fire alarm installations not only keeps you compliant with local regulations but can also affect insurance premiums and claims.

The history of Trinity goes back to the reign of Henry VIII and most of its major buildings date from the 16th and 17th centuries. Nevile’s Court was completed in the late 17th century when the library designed by Sir Christopher Wren was built. The Wren Library contains many treasures, the oldest of which is an 8th century copy of the Epistles of St Paul.

Fire Alarm Installations FAQs

How much do fire alarm installations cost?

It is difficult to provide a precise cost estimate without more specific information about the project. That is why we offer a free, no-obligation quote to help give an idea of the potential cost of installing a fire alarm system.

Why choose Sunfish Services for fire alarm installations?

There are several reasons why Sunfish Services is a good choice for fire alarm installations. Our team has extensive experience and expertise in designing and installing fire alarm systems, and we have a reputation for providing high-quality services for our clients.

Should I buy a hardwired or wireless fire alarm system?

A wireless fire alarm system is often a good solution in buildings where installation is difficult or it is important that the building fabric is not damaged e.g., in historical and heritage properties. The installation of a wireless system can also be quick so it is a good solution where access to a property is only available for a short period of time. A hardwired system can often be the cheaper option and does not require the periodic replacement of batteries in each device

What is the difference between an open and closed protocol system?

What is an open protocol system?

An open protocol system is a system where the device manufacturer has shared its protocol with manufacturers of fire alarm panels which can then be used in combination to provide a fire alarm system. For example Advanced panels can be used with Apollo, Hochiki or Nittan devices.

What is a closed protocol system?

A closed protocol system is a system where both the fire alarm panel and the devices are manufactured by one company. The term has historically been seen as a system which restricted the customer's choice of service provider, but over recent years many manufacturers have developed networks of system integrators which provide the customer with a significant amount of choice.
